Description: This project comprised of a hybrid timber frame and steel structure to house a GP practice surgery, community consulting rooms, library and training rooms. A porous surfaced/gravel drain/swale SUDS system was used to manage diffuse pollution. The projects principle challenges were to design a gravity drainage system within very tight level constraints whilst minimising imported fill to raise the building on to a level plateau. This entailed extensive value engineering right up until tender stage.
